│ Despite the incredible creativity of hip hop, its ability to │
│ throw up new styles, to morph and reinvent itself, itÆs not │
│ every day that something genuinely fresh drops in front of you. │
│ Welcome, then, to ôYoYoYoYoYo,ö the debut album from Spank │
│ Rock. Drawing on the music of their hometown, Baltimore, Spank │
│ Rock make something genuinely unlike any record youÆve heard │
│ before. Of course there are antecedents, but ôYoYoYoYoYoö │
│ demands to be approached on its own terms. │
│ │
│ Opening with white label smash ôBackyard Bettyö (the story of │
│ an ôass-shaking competition champö), producer XXXchange lays │
│ out his stall early with ear-pummelling bass hits, a beat │
│ assembled from percussion garbage and a sinuous, catchy little │
│ melody seemingly played on a calculator. Over it Naeem Juwan │
│ aka MC Spank Rock lays out the funny, stinky little story of │
│ Betty and her many suitors in an instantly likeable, nasal │
│ drawl that has drawn comparisons with Q-Tip (only with more sex │
│ rhymes). This, though, is just the start. ôWhat It Look Likeö │
│ is built around random violin plucking and fabulous boasting │
│ (ôMy tongue is a drum/My mindÆs a machineö). ôIMCö ups the pace │
│ and the lyrical complexity on the albumÆs most experimental │
│ piece, complete with drum programming that sounds like Mo │
│ Tucker playing bloco beats on kettle drums made from mountains │
│ and ending with the battle cry, ôYour sound is deadö. ôRick │
│ Rubin,ö a tribute/boast track takes the bearded zenmeister as │
│ its inspiration and turns into a dirty, catchy robot-latino │
│ number thatÆs as addictive as weird sex. ôTouch Meö is │
│ cavernous abstract eroto-rhyming, ôBumpö early eighties frat │
│ house booty music reconfigured as an epic No Wave stomper (it │
│ also features the foul-mouthed contribution of Philly rapstress │
│ Amanda Blank). ôSweet Talkö is the rawest, dirtiest funk tune │
│ youÆve heard since James Brown was in his classic period, │
│ resolving into a sweet lofi soul moment, a truly breathtaking, │
│ brutal and beautiful musical moment, featuring sopmetime │
│ backing singers the Typical Girls. ôChilly Willö builds slowly │
│ into a pure Club cut-up thatÆs as clever and catchy as it is │
│ offbeat, a theme taken to yet another level on ôTop BillinÆ │
│ From Far Leftö. ôCoke & Wetö slows things down onto a │
│ string-laden, more traditional hip hop beat over which MC Spank │
│ Rock once again shows just what a fine MC he is, mixing │
│ ôcollegeö and ôgangstaö genres with ease and dissing ôhemp │
│ hacky-sacking motherfuckersö with the easy assurance born of │
│ pure star quality. ôCompetitionö takes the album towards its │
│ end on a darker note, a battle rap of immediate power over │
│ swooping cello, electronic pulses and disembodied offbeat │
│ guitar chops, which MC Spank Rock himself describes as ôa │
│ triumphant warrior songö. ôScrewville USAö acts as an extended │
│ outro, JuwanÆs tenor slowed down into a baritone, the strings │
│ and flutes giving you a final chance to draw breath and take in │
│ what youÆve just listened to. │
│ │
│ At just under forty two minutes long, Spank Rock have managed │
│ to reconfigure the musical landscape around them by being │
│ funny, catchy, clever, fearless and most of all, innovative. We │
│ firmly believe that this is a debut album that will be talked │
│ about and loved for years to come. Catch on nowà │
